Today is very hot and sunny, almost 90*. We made it a total tourist day, driving down to the Strip and walking around looking at the sights on the Strip; taking the monorail tram between the casinos. Tomorrow is our last day in Vegas and we hope to see Lake Mead. We're leaving Tuesday morning, just before the rain and colder weather comes in on Wednesday.
